Hy sou nooit kon dink dat sy droom om net sy eie fiets te h\u00ea daartoe sou lei dat hy eendag oorsee kan reis nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jubian Fredericks van Kylemore, \u2019n fietswerktuigkundige by Masons Bike Inn in Stellenbosch, vertrek Vrydag 19 Augustus na Frankryk om by die UCI-bergfietsrykampioenskap vir Fietsry Suid-Afrika as \u2019n fietswerktuigkundige te gaan werk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Fredericks s\u00ea die geleentheid het oor sy pad gekom nadat hy Spook Groene\u00adwald se werktuigkundige vir die Absa Cape Epic was. \u201cSpook het vir my gevra of ek Frankryk toe sou wou gaan. Ek het gedink hy maak \u2019n grap, maar hy was egter ernstig en het dit later met my bevestig.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk sou nooit kon dink dat my stokperdjie eendag vir my hierdie geleentheid sou skep nie. Ek is baie opgewonde en dankbaar vir hierdie geleentheid,\u201d s\u00ea Fredericks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy vertel dat hy as jong kind nie sy eie fiets gehad het nie en omdat sy ouers dit nie kon bekostig nie, het hy besluit om sy eie fiets te bou. \u201cEk het \u2019n vriend, Marido Abrahams \u2013 aan wie ek al die suksesse en vaardighede toeskryf \u2013 ontmoet toe ek so nege jaar oud was en hy het vir my geleer hoe om fietse reg te maak. Ek het toe ander se fietse begin regmaak en dan by van die mense parte gekry waarmee ek toe my eerste fiets gebou het \u2013 dit was nog \u2019n BMX,\u201d s\u00ea hy laggend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk het so fietse gekoop, reggemaak en weer verkoop totdat ek eendag genoeg geld gemaak het om \u2019n motor te kon koop.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hy vertel dat hy as 13-jarige deeltyds by Masons begin werk het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is nou amper 20 jaar in die fietsbedryf. Ek is dankbaar veral vir Marido en my baas Mason, wat oor die jare meer \u2019n vriend as \u2019n baas vir my was. Dit is reeds deur Mason dat hierdie geleentheid op my pad gekom het. Ek is dankbaar vir my vrou, kinders, ma en almal wat my deur di\u00e9 reis ondersteun. Die ondersteu\u00adning van veral ons kli\u00ebnte is ongelooflik.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
